    LV= appetite for risk appears to have declined somewhat. The premium for my two vehicles with them went up by 25% this year whereas last year they were one of the cheapest on all of the comparison sites - for me at least. Now they don't even seem to appear in the top 20 quotes with Confused...

    She may not be straight on the berth. ABP shipping movement schedule currently shows her eta as 0545 hrs on 23rd Feb!

    Stingray perhaps but Enzo wasn’t wrong about the e type!

    Model Y UK Delivery

    It's worth pointing out that there are other threads on here highlighting the possibility that the stock Tesla aero covers also create damage on the Gemini alloys. Worth keeping a check on if you plan to keep the aero covers in place. It creates a real dilemma. Do you keep the aero covers on in...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Yes very much a personal preference. At the end of the day the tyre diameter is exactly the same for both wheels i.e. 28 inches, so when it appears to look smaller you are only talking about the rims. Therefore, if in both circumstances you were to have a black rim, you probably wouldn't notice.

    Who knows for sure currently but they are definitely worth something. The tyres themselves will be best part of brand new and they will definitely have a ready second hand market - the Pirellis retailing at £200-250 each. We'll need to see what the market will be for the gemini alloys in the UK...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I'm sure you are correct that a good set of 20s will cost more than £2,100 but you forget that those Geminis that come off the car have a significant value too - anything between £400-500 a corner.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Relax and stay with it. The £2100 you're saving will pay for those Rimetrix several times over. Hell - you could probably even get a fabulous set of aftermarket alloys for significantly less.

    MSC Immacolata is looking like an eta of around 1st March so is probably a bit late for getting it to the NEC on 3rd March. The SFL Composer has been motoring from the Far East and it could be that whoever gave you the info about the vessel's eta was using an old provisional eta for her before...

    My MY LR is due for delivery 2nd March but I hadn't had any info for a while so I was able to contact Emma on the chat this afternoon. She was able to give me my Licence plate information and also confirmed that the vehicle was still to arrive in the UK. I had assumed that there was chance that...

    She was maintaining eta Suez 14th February. That being the case she is currently probably approaching the Horn of Africa - a quite sensitive location from a vessel security point of view. The reason you cannot see her currently is that the ”free” version of AIS can only use shore based receivers...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    I believe it's all to do with the Tesla business model which requires as many cars as possible produced in any one quarter to be paid for in that same quarter. This means that in Q1 for example the last ship will leave for Europe in around mid Feb to allow for a 4 week transit to UK / EU and...

    Model Y UK Delivery

    There is obviously some timing variance which no doubt depends upon when you ordered, the specification you have chosen and the current availability of vehicles on their way to the UK. I too am a business lease and i got the same txt you did on 1st Feb. The next text I got was on 3rd Feb...

    The Audi e-tron is more a competitor for the luxury EVs - Ipace, EQC, Model X, iX, etc. Despite its price tag it's range is quite disappointing - <250miles WLTP

    That's an e-tron not a Q40 e-tron.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    For "similar" spec and range you'd need to go for the Sport 50 e-tron quattro with added optional extras (e.g the C+S pack to give you a reversing camera and adaptive cruise control). This would be at a price very similar to the MY. Seriously better build quality in the VAG offering but it would...

    Received SMS from Tesla this evening that my Model Y is due for delivery on 2nd March. That being the case do i assume that the vehicle is on the SFL Composer? Or is it on another ship?

    Not via the route I went through. The guy at the Stratford Tesla Store was the same one we met when we test drove a Model 3 earlier in January and he has been quite helpful - even though we are leasing through Lex. I can't speak for the rest of the Tesla organisation though.

    MY LR AWD white with black interior and 19" Gemini wheels ordered through Lex Autolease. Tesla confirmed my order on 27 Jan via SMS and this morning I was advised by Tesla Stratford that I have been matched to a car and they have given me the VIN number. Unfortunately they were unable to...
